National Express Nottingham Heathrow recent customer reviews

The journey was fine - on schedule and comfortable. Downside was the inconvenience to start the journey from Nottingham rather than my home town of Mansfield due to unsuitable journeys from Mansfield to arrive at Heathrow in time for our flight.

In general all is well. The delay to airport was due to an accident on the carriage way which was beyond NX
